Bayleigh Pelham currently spends her time split between her home in Halifax NS, and Toronto ON. Before her appearance on this season, she was a trained actor, online personality, and personal trainer.

The JIVE team has had the honour of working with Bayleigh on video projects in the past - and are not shocked at all by her success on Canada’s version of the esteemed reality competition show “Big Brother”. The authenticity she holds in front of, and away from the camera have served her well - making her the first female winner in 6 years, the first LGBTQIA+ female winner, the first to break the “first in, first out” curse.

We are so proud of our friend Bayleigh! Check out the below video, a fictional scene filmed and directed by JIVE, with actors Bayleigh Pelham and Samantha Gracie.

Congrats, Bayleigh!!
